What is "rote learning"?

Rote learning is a memorization technique where information is learned by repetition, without necessarily understanding its meaning. This method focuses on repeating facts, terms, or procedures until they are remembered, often by repeating them over and over. While rote learning can be effective for remembering basic information, such as vocabulary or formulas, it does not encourage deep understanding or critical thinking. It is commonly used in situations where quick recall of facts is necessary, but it may not help with applying knowledge in different contexts.
